UPDATE: Lohan's assistant was in the passenger seat and was also taken to the hospital. Lindsay was driving. Both Lindsay and her assistant (the passenger) were bleeding and bruised, and the assistant was in an ambulance.

Lindsay and her assistant were both conscious after the accident.

UPDATE #2: Lohan's rep says Lindsay was brought in to Santa Monica UCLA hospital as a precaution and was released in under two hours.

She is so determined to prove she's no longer an unreliable slacker, apparently, that she went straight from the hospital to the Liz & Dick set.

Lindsay has several visible injuries on her body - bruises, cuts and scratches - but asked to cover them with makeup so she could keep shooting.

Follow Lindsay Lohan?

The accident couldn't have been that bad if she didn't go to the hospital in the ambulance. Bummer!

I do hope the accident was not her fault. There are such high hopes that she would revive her fading movie career with the Liz and Dick film in the works. It would be a shame if this car accident prevented her finishing that film. She has so much real acting talent that has gone to waste as she stumbled through first few years of adulthood. I had hoped all the poor choices and bad judgment were behind her at this point. Well, whatever the outcome of this latest disaster, I hope she lands on her feet and keeps moving forward positive goals.
